Windows 7 Being Retooled for Tablets Free Tools Fix Shortcut Vulnerability Windows 7, Office Boost Microsoft Microsoft Warns of Shortcut Attacks MS Cofounder To Donate Fortune Microsoft Knocks Windows Vista Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer has told analysts that the software giant is working in cooperation with device manufacturers to develop a customized version of Windows 7 for tablets. Security firms G Data Software and Sophos have released free tools that eliminate a vulnerability in an operating-system component called the Windows Shell for Windows XP, Vista, and Windows 7. With Apple breezing past Wall Street estimates this week by reporting $15.7 billion in revenue for its third business quarter, the pressure was on Microsoft -- and the software giant delivered. Microsoft has released a security advisory addressing a vulnerability in the way Windows parses shortcuts. Advisory 2286198 warns that "malicious code may be executed" from a shortcut. Microsoft cofounder Paul Allen pledged to donate the majority of his $13.5 billion fortune to charity, just weeks after Bill Gates and Warren Buffet called on billionaires to give away their fortunes. Remember how Microsoft vigorously defended Windows Vista as a good product despite strong criticism and slow adoption by IT types? Looks like even Microsoft didn't believe its words, either.   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   FULL STORY   Windows 7 Being Retooled for Tablets   Free Tools Fix Shortcut Vulnerability Windows 7, Office Boost Microsoft Aged PCs, servers being replaced.   FULL STORY Microsoft Warns of Shortcut Attacks Removable drives most vulnerable.   FULL STORY MS Cofounder To Donate Fortune Paul Allen to fund scientific research.   FULL STORY Microsoft Knocks Windows Vista COO says iPhone 4 could also flop.   FULL STORY Russian Spy Worked for Microsoft Windows 2000, XP SP2 at End of Life Outlook Connects To Social Networks Windows Phone 7 Lures Developers Microsoft Ready To Stop Some Updates Ballmer Promises Windows 7 Tablets Patch Tuesday To Fix Windows, Office 'Leaked' Docs Outline Windows 8 Windows 7 Sales Near 150 Million Windows Embedded Handheld Coming Retail Stores Now Selling Office 2010 Microsoft Pre-Loads Office on PCs Web Apps Offer a Free Taste of Office MS Offers Free Office Web Apps MS Plans Smartphone OS Comeback Steve To Steve: Tablets ARE PCs Google Drops Windows After Attack MS Looks Beyond China Amid Piracy Make Your House a Hohm with MS Shake-Up Revamps MS Entertainment Kin Concerts Lead Fans on a Chase Hotmail Boosts Its Management Ability Microsoft Will Pay VirnetX $200M   More on this topic...
